Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School.

With Shi Hao shining brightly at the Gathering of Heroes, defeating two top masters from Qianhe Martial Arts School and Weiyuan Hall in succession, the entire martial arts school became famous.

The day after the gathering of heroes ended, many young people came to the school wanting to become apprentices and learn boxing techniques.

There were wealthy teenagers from the county town, as well as children who came from nearby towns.

The outer disciples registering were busy and sweating profusely.

"One at a time!"

"Please provide your name, age, and place of origin!"

Inside the training ground, Qin Wuhe stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the bustling scene in the outer courtyard, and was momentarily lost in thought.

The Hidden Dragon Martial Arts Academy hasn't been this lively in a long time.

When Qin Wuhe received this inheritance from his master, he was also full of vigor and ambition.

He swore to his master that he would revitalize the Canglong Martial Arts School.

He wants to bring Canglong Martial Arts School back to the forefront of martial arts in Chixia County.

But after actually taking over, he realized how difficult it was for a martial arts school to prosper.

Without a reputation, it's impossible to attract good disciples.

Without good disciples, one cannot make a name for oneself.

Without building a reputation, no powerful forces will be willing to invest, and without money or elixirs, a disciple's progress will naturally be slow.

This cycle repeats itself, like an invisible net tightening its grip on the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School.

(Please remember 1219.m.k.com for the fastest chapter updates.)

In recent years, Weiyuantang and Qianhe Martial Arts School have become increasingly popular, while Benlei and Panshi have each had their own backers. Only Canglong Martial Arts School has declined year by year.

The school is facing a shortage of qualified disciples.

Although the true lineage has figures like Song Tieshan and Liu Qingping to hold its own, the younger generation has always lacked a figure who can make a name for himself.

Desperate, Qin Wuhe turned his attention to the depths of the mountains and launched the "Good Luck Plan," which was secretly mocked by other martial arts schools.

We recruited forty young people from the mountains and countryside for free, providing them with food and lodging, and teaching them martial arts.

Many people thought he was crazy.

But Qin Wuhe had no choice.

Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School is no longer in a position to wait for promising talents to come to them.

He has to find it himself.

Unexpectedly, a genius like Shi Hao emerged from among these people.

Now, at the Gathering of Heroes, Shi Hao has become famous in Chixia County, not only increasing his status but also enhancing the reputation of Canglong Martial Arts School, bringing a surge of visitors to the school.

With a steady stream of new students enrolling, the status of Canglong Martial Arts School in Chixia County will naturally rise in the future!

Just then, a burst of laughter and chatter came from the doorway.

Qin Wuhe looked up and saw Shi Hao walk in from outside.

The young man was dressed in a brand-new cyan outfit, with a jade pendant given to him by the Huang family hanging at his waist. His eyes and brows were full of undisguised pride. The spring breeze caressed his face as he walked briskly, his cheeks still flushed from the banquet.

Beside him was Huang Jue, the second young master of the Huang family.

Huang Jue, dressed in a brocade robe and holding a folding fan, appeared calm and composed. Behind him were two servants from the Huang family, carrying gift boxes, seemingly there to escort Shi Hao back to the martial arts school.

As soon as he got close, Qin Wuhe smelled a faint scent of alcohol.

He frowned slightly, his gaze falling on Shi Hao.

"Hao'er".

Qin Wuhe's tone was not heavy, but it carried the authority of a teacher.

"I have warned you that alcohol is harmful to your health. At your age, you are in the process of building your foundation. Your energy and blood are not yet fully developed, so you must not indulge in alcohol and sex."

Shi Hao paused, and the smile on his face faded slightly.

"Master."

He bowed respectfully, saying, "This disciple knows his mistake."

He had just returned from the celebratory banquet hosted by the Huang family and had a couple of drinks. He had listened to Qin Wuhe's admonition, but hadn't really taken it to heart.

Upon seeing this, Huang Jue immediately stepped forward, took the blame, and said with a smile, "Master Qin, this is my fault."

"Today, Juxianglou is hosting a banquet, and several shopkeepers want to meet Brother Shi Hao. I saw that he made a name for Canglong Martial Arts School at the Gathering of Heroes, so I thought I would celebrate for him."

"But don't worry, it's just two cups of wine, it won't interfere with Brother Shi Hao's cultivation at all."

Qin Wuhe's expression softened slightly, and he nodded to Huang Jue.

"Young Master Huang, you are very kind."

"Shi Hao's performance at the Gathering of Heroes was largely due to the Huang family's strong support."

Since Shi Hao received financial assistance from the Huang family, Qin Wuhe hasn't provided him with much help in terms of cultivation resources. After all, the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School has been declining for so many years and really doesn't have much wealth left.

The Huang family, on the other hand, in addition to the official monthly salary, would also provide Shi Hao with extra pills to support his cultivation.

Although Shi Hao is not yet officially married into the Huang family, they already treat him as half a son-in-law.

Looking at the bustling atmosphere in the outer courtyard of the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School, Huang Jue narrowed his eyes, gently opened his folding fan, and congratulated Qin Wuhe, saying, "Master Qin, your Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School is truly thriving!"

"No, it's just a new batch of disciples."

Whether he can become a useful person depends on his future fortune.

Despite this, Qin Wuhe couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

At this moment, Huang Jue closed his folding fan and solemnly said, "Master Qin, besides celebrating Brother Shi Hao's visit today, I also have another important matter to discuss."

Qin Wuhe's eyes flickered slightly.

"Young Master Huang, please speak."

Huang Jue said slowly, "I am here today to represent the Huang family."

"We would like to explore deeper cooperation with Canglong Martial Arts School."

Qin Wuhe raised an eyebrow: "Deep cooperation?"

Huang Jue nodded. "Not bad."

Qin Wuhe gestured, "I'd like to hear the details."

Huang Jue smiled and said, "As Master Qin knows, my Huang family has been operating in Chixia County for many years, with businesses in pharmacies, grain stores, and carriage shops. Especially in the field of medicinal herbs, we are considered one of the best in Chixia County."

"What is the biggest deficiency for a martial arts school in training disciples?"

He answered his own question: "Medicinal herbs."

"And my Huang family happens to be able to provide the medicinal herbs!"

Qin Wuhe remained noncommittal and listened quietly.

Huang Jue continued, "My Huang family is willing to provide a batch of medicinal herbs to the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts Academy every month for the purpose of training inner-court disciples."

"Especially for geniuses like Brother Shi Hao, we must not let a lack of resources hinder their progress."

Qin Wuhe did not immediately express his opinion.

He knew that there were no free lunches in the world.

The Huang family's initiative to show goodwill was clearly motivated by ulterior motives.

"I have seen the Huang family's sincerity."

Qin Wuhe slowly said, "But what does the Huang family want?"

Huang Jue smiled lightly and said, "Master Qin is a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush either."

"First, if any disciples of the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School wish to hold official positions in the future, my Huang family hopes to have priority in selecting them."

"Secondly, if any members of the Huang family send themselves to learn martial arts, I hope Master Qin will take good care of them."

"third……"

Of the several requirements listed by Huang Jue, Qin Wuhe considered the first one to be the most important.

Priority selection right.

This means that the Huang family will have priority in selecting the martial artists trained by the Hidden Dragon Martial Arts Academy in the future. Only those left over will be available to other forces.

Qin Wuhe hesitated.

"In this way, my Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School is completely bound to the Huang family."

After all, other forces aren't fools; they wouldn't choose the ones the Huang family had left over for important positions.

In other words, once he agrees to the Huang family's offer, the disciples of his Hidden Dragon Martial Arts School will basically only have one promising future: a nominal position within the Huang family. It will be very difficult for them to obtain any important positions elsewhere.
